Holiday Inn Express Arcata / Eureka - Airport Area by IHG

Holiday Inn Express Arcata / Eureka - Airport Area by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"There is something special about this independently owned hotel and bravo to the owners/managers and staff!!! ALL staff seemed genuinely happy to be working. It was refreshing and impressive. The customer service from ALL staff, (seriously, check in, maintenance, breakfast, every single staff member) was incredible. Cheerful hellos, looking after our needs, so above and beyond, it was surreal. The pool and hot tub were relaxing, the room was clean, everything about our experience was fantastic. We've never stayed at a hotel so conveniently located to an airport, either. It's located at a great spot to explore state and county beaches. They rent bikes! We didn't use this amenity but made mental note of it. Great hotel at a great destination. Highly recommend."

"We arrived at night and only heard the sound of the water and when we awoke we were blown away! What a view! The kitchen had everything we needed. Bathroom had plenty of hot water. The bed was comfy and we slept well. My only complaint was that we had to leave."

"The property is as advertised. Property is clean. Close to the beach, can hear the ocean from the property and listen to it at night. Be advised air conditioning does not exist, but you can open the windows and it will cool down. We enjoyed our visit."

10/10 Excellent
"Everything was 5 Star. So different from where we usually stay. It was just so special I will say the cabin was a little tight for two adults, a dog and a large dog bed. The room had everything you needed from plates cups bowls and coffee. A very special place so happy we stayed there. Convenient to eating and trails. WiFi Netflix Hulu and more available as a side note. When completing this review the font is so big that you’re unable to give 5 stars and can see all the options to evaluate."

Luffenholtz Beach Studio: Your seaside getaway in beautiful Trinidad, CA

10/10 Excellent
"We love staying here! The location was perfect, just a quick walk down the driveway to the beach, which was most dramatic! Coming from Florida, these west coast beaches make ours look like a boring lake! Tom and Tom's gardens were one of my favorite parts of staying here, I walked around each day we were there to soak in their beauty. The apartment was really well appointed and comfortable. Loved the huge, retractable sky light! The nearby town of Trinidad was wonderful as well, and what can I say about the majestic redwood forests nearby. It was a perfect spot for my first time ever in California. Thank you!"
